Chapter 38: Chapter 38 – Running Away?

Ling Tian continued to fly for a few more hours, before returning to where they had agreed to meet.

He didn't discover any natural formation of teleportation. He was somewhat frustrated. Although he liked living in a quiet place like this lower plane, he did not want to spend the rest of his life here.

He didn't even discover other cities or places where human life existed. Everything was plagued by demonic beasts.

The only thing that he missed was that, it seemed that this Divine Star continent was something small, like a small world in a lower plane. He felt that he could fly the entire star continent in about a month by flying on his sword.

Swoosh

Ling Tian flew quickly to the designated spot. He descended from the sky and put his sword away.

No one had arrived.

He didn't even release his spiritual sense to scan his surroundings. In this lower plane... what dangers could happen to him? He was the strongest in that place so far.

Ling Tian decided to lean against a tree, waiting for those two to return.

As he had nothing else to do, he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

After a long time, Ling Tian felt a strong, ugly breath near his face.

He opened his eyes and was a little surprised.

A demon beast in the Sixth Stage of Chi Gathering was in front of him, its red black eyes and its breath crashing into his face. It seemed to be watching its food.

It was a demon beast in the shape of an ox, with a long horn on its forehead and its huge body.

Ling Tian raised his eyebrows as he watched it. He did not even make the attempt to move. He was not afraid. With one wave of his hand, he could easily annihilate this demon beast. Using his strength from the sea of knowledge, he could even destroy it.

Just as he was about to kill it because it did not move and its breath was horrible, Ling Tian felt the presence of Tang Jingtian.

"Brother Tian!"

Tang Jingtian shouted nervously when he saw a demon beast about to eat Ling Tian.

Tang Jingtian was somewhat tired when he arrived at the scene.

He had been running non-stop, looking for any clues or places where he could find those medicinal plants.

But no matter how hard he looked, he found nothing.

Now, seeing that Ling Tian was cornered by a demon beast, he was surprised.

Ling Tian did not move. He wanted to see what he would do. Besides, he would try to hide his power to avoid making a fuss. Unless it was necessary, he wouldn't make a move.

Tang Jingtian was a little worried. He knew that the demon beast was a two-star King, so he had to escape from there. He could run and escape from being killed by the demon beast, but he would let Ling Tian die. He made up his mind.

Tang Jingtian grabbed a stone and threw it at the demon beast while shouting, "Hey!"

The demon beast turned as it was suddenly struck. Surprisingly, it moved away from Ling Tian as it walked toward its new prey.

Tang Jingtian grabbed his sword tightly while watching the demon beast: "Brother Tian! Try to escape once the demon beast comes to me... I will try to stop it!"

Ling Tian showed a weak smile when he saw Tang Jingtian's action: 'Instead of running, he decided to face that demon beast so that I can escape safely... It seems that I can trust him too...' He kept watching the situation. He didn't move or stand up.

Tang Jingtian was focused on the demon beast, therefore he could not see if Ling Tian had already run. His heartbeat was beating to the rhythm of a war drum, filled with nervousness and fear as he faced a demon beast in the rank of King.

Roar!

The demon beast charged toward Tang Jingtian.

Boom

It hit a tree and smashed it.

Tang Jingtian narrowly escaped the onslaught of the demon beast. He was scared inside when he faced the ox.

Roar!

The demon beast charged at Tang Jingtian again.

"Argh!"

This time, Tang Jingtian couldn't dodge, so he took the blow to his left arm while trying to cover himself. He flew away a few meters before standing up again.

"Brother Jingtian!"

A scream was heard from far away.

Tang Jingtian was somewhat relieved to see Mu Shen running to where he was. Though two Great Heavens ranks would find it nearly impossible to defeat a demon beast of King rank, they still had a chance to hurt it. If not, they could escape once Ling Tian had run as well.

Tang Jingtian quickly told Mu Shen why he was facing the demon beast. Mu Shen also drew his sword from his back.

Ling Tian had also seen Mu Shen coming: 'It looks like it will be interesting. Let's see how far their potential, their determination and willpower can go...' He was watching the two boys fight a demon beast stronger than them. He couldn't help but lift the corner of his mouth slightly.

The demon beast stopped moving when it watched the two boys together, facing it.

GROAR!

The demon beast rammed those two facing creatures again.

Tang Jingtian and Mu Shen engaged in battle together against a demon beast stronger than themselves.

One stick of incense later, the demon beast was full of some wounds, while the two boys were also somewhat injured.

Ling Tian observed from the beginning their way of fighting: 'They still have a long way to go before they can fight opponents stronger than them'.

Ling Tian wanted to end this, but did not want to expose himself too much, so he threw his aura at the demon beast, weakening it and crushing its entire body inside, while Mu Shen and Tang Jingtian continued to wound it on the outside until they succeeded in killing it.

The two did not realize how easy it was to finish off the demon beast in the end, while they both fell to the ground panting, completely exhausted.

Ling Tian walked toward them slowly with the jade bottle in his hand that contained the medicinal plants within.

Ling Tian said: " You could really kill a beast of King rank ... you are really strong, if I am not mistaken, it is not the first time you face a demon beast together, right?"

Tang Jingtian answered after resting for a while: "Yes, Brother Tian. Brother Shen and I have ventured out of the star city together many times, so we can't help but get caught up in some fight against the demon beasts."

Ling Tian nodded while he handed him the jade bottle.

"What is this?"

Tang Jingtian frowned as he checked the jade bottle.

"Inside are the medicinal plants you wanted. Check it out."

Tang Jingtian opened his eyes as he quickly opened the jade bottle and pulled out the medicinal plants.

"What!"

Tang Jingtian was surprised, but then he stood up quickly as happiness covered his face: "Thank you Brother Tian!" He thanked him deeply as he squeezed the jade bottle tightly.

Ling Tian nodded with a smile as he waited for the two of them to recover.

After about ten minutes, they returned to the star city.
